Ključna riječ Economic Crisis

Sredinom 2000-ih Wall Street je rastao u svakome pogledu, s rekordnim dividendama, višemilijunskim godišnjim zaradama i rastućim poslovanjem s nekretninama. No 2008. sve se to preko noći urušilo.

HBO Films predstavlja fascinantan pogled iza kulisa na nedavnu krizu koja je gotovo slomila američki bankovni sustav – i cijelo gospodarstvo te zemlje.
